I probably don't qualify to respond to this thread as I don't have a Z4 just yet (but I will soon).

Anyway my 2 wheeler is a Triumph Street Triple 675. Had her for over 4 years now and still love her as much as the day I got her. Have tried others i.e. Ducati Street fighter and although the extra power was nice it was not as smooth or as refined as the STR.

Latest of mine it’s on car and classic but I stuck it on quite high as the European buyers do buy off that site and I can deliver into Europe pretty cheaply…I managed to make a mess of the pipework so needs cleaning up and coating or a replacement system I guess

Wierd as it is showing up for me, but it is a link from google photos so maybe permissions stopping anyone else seeing it

I will try again

Traded in the S1000r for a Kawasaki Ninja 1000sx.

I have been considering the Suzuki GSXS1000GT since it burst on the scene a couple of years or so ago. But I still enjoy my Street Triple.

I think if I do get the Suzuki I will probably keep the triumph as well, not going to get a lot for it and I do love the bike.

There is a lot to be said for a little wind protection.

I looked at the Suzuki first last week as it looked great online. Put a leg over it and 5 seconds later had discounted it.
The only word I can use to describe it is "Agricultural".

Really, not test ridden it yet as you couldn't get on one for love nor money for over a year (unless you were a top YouTuber).

That's a shame as it seems perfect on paper. I love my naked but just not on motorways. The Kawasaki was also on my list to try. Unfortunately I won't get a new bike past the boss this year having recently bought the E89, maybe next year. At least that will give me time to try a few.

Ah, apologies, I meant the GSX-S1000GT.

Can't beat a Kwaka!
That looks very GPz900 'esque' with the paint job.

So that is a Z1000 SX? I don't understand why Kwaka are calling everything 'ninja' ATM.

I have had a couple of Z1000s. The blue one I never rode (except into the garage).
